Every two weeks, SCAD Radio staff and volunteers vote for the prestigious honor of Staffer of the Fortnight, a member of the organization worthy of such a title. The final SotF for the quarter is Sam Esterline, our Assistant Program Director.

Who is your celebrity crush?

That one’s actually easy. Jennifer Lawrence. We have the same birthday, which is… strange.

Name the guilty pleasure song that you’re not afraid to admit you actually like.

Can I take this a little bit differently? I’m gonna go guilty pleasure artist. Everybody hates on me for it, but I thoroughly enjoy Macklemore. If I had to choose a guilty pleasure song of his, it would have to be “Church” from his Unplanned Mixtape.

What’s your most embarrassing moment you’re willing to share?

When I was a sophomore in high school, I was on some new medications prescribed by my doctors. Legal, you know… nothing illicit. They knocked me out, so I had gone to get my haircut. I was super out of it, and they asked me how I wanted my hair cut. I said “however you want. Just cut it. Just get it over with.” Then I passed out, and when I came to… I had a buzzcut. It’s… it’s a whole different look from how I am now.

Long before the luscious locks

Jonas Brothers or One Direction?

I’m gonna say Jonas brothers, solely because I also share a birthday with Nick Jonas, and I grew up knowing them. When One Direction came out, I was in middle school, around there. I was over that.

Favorite Pokémon?

Rayquaza. Third gen, best legendaries, hands down, no questions.
